THE MAHOGANY CRAZE.
Immediately after the Civil War
many Southern families of prominence
and former wealth found themselves
under the necessity of disposing of
many objects of art and beautiful
household furniture, which had prior
to that time adorned their homes.
Some of these thfbgs were In the na
ture of heirlooms and were parted with
only under dire necessity, hut the same
grit which led their owners Into and
sustained them during the long, un
equal struggle Induced them to let go
In order that steps for a new life, un
der new conditions, might be success
fully prosecuted which would again
prove of what metal these people were
made.
Herein lies the difference between the
disposition of such articles on the part
of some of the families of some of the
European states and those of the
One of the daintiest of housewifely
accomplishments' Is the putting up of
fruits. It savors of the days when even
the grandest of dames thought It not
beneath her dignity to make her own
sweetmeats and put up her own aim
pies for winter's use. Aside from the
realization that preserves taste better
to the family when put up by the
hands of wife or mother, there Is an
unspeakable comfort In knowing that
no i>ernlclous preservatives have en
tered Into their composition and that
they have been prepared In sanitary
surroundings.
It Is perfect cleanliness and the use
of the.b^pt materials that spell success
In the canning. The fruit should be
ripe, but not overripe, for as soon as
ripe or overripe the pectin, or Jelly-
making principle, loses Its power. Im
perfect fruit should not be canned or
preserved, though gnarly or bruised
fruits may be used In Jellies or mtujna-
lade If the Imperfect portions are cut
out. L r se only granulated sugar and
avoid that with a bluish cast, remem
bering that the best sugar obtainable Is
none too good. As for cans, buy the
best In the market, self-sealing and
perfect. If you are to use old cans be
sure to get new rubbers. An old rub
ber Is a delusion nnd a snare.
Other utensils are a skimmer, a Indie
a strainer, large mouthed funnel, two
long handled wooden spoons, a fruit
pricker, a wire basket for Immersing
the kinds of fruit that need peeling into
hot water, knives for paring, preferably
Plated; several bright tin pans or earth
en bowls, a stoneware crock or two, a
wooden vegetable masher. Jelly hags
and squares of cheesecloth, a rack to
slip In the bottom of the boiler If the
fruit Is to be cooked by the steaming
process, an asbestos mat to lit the
oven If the fruit Is to be oven cooked
and plenty of washable holders and
towels.
Scale* are a desirable addition to the
canning outfit, ns weighing Is more re
liable than measuring. Before begin
ning the canning the kitchen should be
thoroughly swept nnd dusted with j
damp cloth, and all the utensils sterll
Ized. Tho glass cans, bottles, etc.,
should be put In cold water over the
tire, brought gradually to tho boiling
point, then boiled ten minutes. Stew-
pans, strainers, etc., should be put In
water hot or cold and boiled ten
fifteen minutes.
The cook herself should be suitably
dressed for her work. In washable ma
terial; no flippy floppy sleeves, or
sweeping train, and a cap to hold all
floating tresses In check. Wherever
possible, fruit should be prepared over
night or In the early cool of the morn
ing, so that when ready to con there
need be no delay. If there Is a shady
yard or back porch, do t’>e work -,ut of
doors, making t.Js preliminary th>v.»ry
poetry of labor. A paring bee Is n"> end
of fun, remembering that many hands
make light work. Pineapples may be
peeled and shredded, then covered with
sugar nnd set In the cellar over night.
Currants may be stemmed nnd looked
over, cherries pitted for preserves,
gooseberries topped und tailed, nnd
some kinds ot berries looked over.
Some fruits, however, need to be cook
ed as soon as possible after bringing
in the house, In order to retain color
and crispness.
AU market fruit must be washed be
fore canning, and home grown fruit If
raised where It will gather dust. Cur
rants especially must be thoroughly
washed on account of the hellebore
used to protect them from the currant
worm. Berries that have to be wash
ed should be placed in a colander be
fore stemming or hulling and cold wa
ter poured over them. This must bo
done quick!}', then the berries shaken
until drained. Do not use the flngera
In hulling them. A slmplo huller can
be purchased for ft cents, or the bonbon
tongs may he used.
Before peeling peaches fill a wire
basket and plunge for two or three
minutes in a pan of boiling water. Lift
the wire basket out nnd lower for an
other moment In n pan of cold water,
drain, then slip the skins off. Plums
und tomatoes may he peeled In the
sumo way.
While the principle of successful can
ning Is always the same, absolue ster
ilization, there are different ways of
accomplishing this. Some fruits, like
rhubarb, green gooseberries und cran
berries, may be preserved without
cooking or the use of sugar, because
their own acid Is a germ killer. The
proportion of sugar used In the preaer-
Southern states. A parting by an
Italian or Spanish family with a paint
ing by Titian or Murillo, valued ns a
precious possession since tho Renais
sance, Is almost a sure sign of decay,
hut u sale of an exquisite mahogany
sideboard by a Southern family meant
the beginning of restoration of the
family nnmo.
The story of the restoration of this
section, unequnled In the world’s his
tory. n* was the bold struggle agnlnst
that which brought about Its neces
sity, has been often told. Statistics
now yearly given prove that the point
of restoration ns to muterlnl health
has long since been passed. True, the
South was endowed with great natural
wealth, but It was far richer In being
Inhabited by a class of real Americans
who had the spirit to overcome the
direst misfortune and undyr changed
ondltlons avail themselves of heav
n’s rich gifts.
These beautiful objects of art, evl
I
vation ot other fruits varies accord
ing to acidity and the time ot cook
ing to the tenderness of the fruit.
Home fruits are best conserved by
cooking Immediately In syrup, others,
like quinces and hard pears, must first
be boiled In clear water to make len
der, then In syrup. While there are a
number of different methods of can
ning, the three principal ones are
stewing the fruit before It Is put in
Jars, cooking the fruit In Jars in the
oven, and cooking the fruit In Jars In
a water bath. There Is also the cold
water process of canning and the bar
le due or sun cooked preserves.
Simplest of ull Is the stewing process.
The syrups used In canning or pre
serving are mode with varying propor
tions of sugar and water. For canning,
a light syrup, one pint of sugar to two
pints of water, Is best for the sweet
frulta, such as pears, peaches, cherries,
sweet plums, raspberries, huckleber
ries and blackberries. Ac Id fruits, such
as sour plums and cherries, need a pint
of sugar to a pint of water. Juicy
fruits—the various berries, currants
and cherries—require little or no wa
ter, simply the sugar.
To Can By 8tswing.
Having measured the fruit and al
lowed the amount of sugar called for,
put sugar and water or fruit In the
preserving kettle and cook until thor
oughly heated through, the time being
dependent upon the kind of fruit.
When ready to put in Jars roll the
jar In hot water, slipping under side
ways, then set In a shallow pan hav
ing about two Inches of hot water In
the bottom or If preferred a towel
wrung out of hot water. Now, with
ladle or spoon, using a wide mouthed
funnel for the Jar, fill with the scald
ing fruit ami syrup. Slip a silver
plated knife around the Inside of the
Jar next the glass to let out air bub
bles, and pack fruit and juice solidly.
When full to overflowing and rubber
smoothly adjusted, put on the top and
fasten or screw as tight as possible.
Lift out the Jar, set on a board or
thick folded newspaper, out of a
draught. As It cools tighten again. If
screw covers are used. When cold,
wipe the Jars clean, wrap In paper,
label and set away In a cool dark
closet.
Canned Fruit in a Water Bath.
Have ready a common w’ash boiler
with a rack In the bottom and enough
warm water to come several Inches
above the rack. Fill sterilized Jars
with fruit, packing ns closely as pos
slble. Make a syrup of sugar and wa
ter of the desired sweetness. When
at tho bolflng point pour over the
fruit and set the cans In the boiler,
not allowing them to touch. Keep
them separated by cotton rope
<*loths, so that they will not strike
when the water begins to boll about
them. Do not put on the rubbers, but
cover lightly with tho tops. Cover the
holler, then cook about ten minutes or
a little longer than fruit canned by
stewing. Draw the boiler back, tako
out the cans one by one, setting In a
pan of hot water. Put on the rubbers.
All to overflowing with more of the
syrup, that has been kept hot, and
seal.

ARTI8T FARNY MARRIES WARD,
The noted painter of the American
Indian, Henry F. Farny, of Cincinnati,
was married a few' days ago, at James
town, N. Y., to his w'ard, Miss Anna
Bay. Mr. Farny Is 69 years old; his
bride Is only 18.
The romance began when Miss Ray
was a little girl. When, the artist first
saw her she was a pretty, care-free
child In a short frock, playing on the
lawn of a friend's home In Covington,
Ky. He learned she was the child of
poor purents, and he gained their con
sent to educate the girl. She was
reared In every way as a daughter of
his would have been. She was sent to
a select school and she had every ad
vantage that money could provide.
Her benefactor visited her twice
year. The love for the child blossomed
Into the love for the "one woman"
and Farny asked his ward to marry
him. She consented, and for the first
time In Its history "Umberland,” the
artist's country estate In Kentucky, will
have a mistress. The couple left for
New York, where the artist will present
his child bride to his friend*.
Mr. Farny has sketched and painted
In all the cities ot the Old World, he
has been the friend ot kings and em
perors, and he Is still talked of on the
Western plains as "The Big Man Who
Paints.”
For years he has lived the life of a
recluse on his magnificent Kentucky
country place, "Umberland," deaf to the
entreaties of society, which would lion
ize him. The emperor of Germany has
a smhU canvas by Farny In his pri
vate apartments which he values high
ly—and he paid his good round Ger
man thalers for It.
Farny was the original of Marny,
the delightful yarn spinner In F. Hop-
kinson Smith’s "Woodflre In No. 3."
Smith nnd Farny shared a studio in
Cincinnati In the old days. Farny
painted the portrait of "Aunt Lou,"
the old colored mammy, who told the
story of "A Kentucky t’lndereila," while
sweeping out Farny’s studio.
Robert Blum, who illustrated Sir Ed
win Arnold’s book on Japan,
I wo logo of Farny’s; Kenyon Cox has
reason to remember the rare gifts of
this remarkable man, and Nlchaus, the
sculptor, owes much to the generous
advice and criticism of Farny. I-af-
cadio Hearn, whose stories of "Things
Japanese’* resemble bits of porcelain,
was another protege of Farny’s.
Famy’s pictures are highly prized
because he will not sell a picture to
any one unless he thinks the person

COTTON GOING DOWN
THE UDDER FOR PRICE
Will Be Great Loss to Karmen
Unless Something Is Done
to Check Decline.
Bpcclal to The Georgian.
Augusta, Ga, Aug. 21.—Cotton Is still
going down the ladder In price, and
yesterday middling was quoted at'9 3-4
cents, which Is an eighth off from what
It was Saturday. The price has been
declining at the rate of an eighth a
day for several days, nnd unless there
Is something to check the decline there
will be great loss to the farmers in thli
vicinity.
The older heads on the cotton row
declare that the situation Is nothing
short ot being serious, and that If there
Is not something done real soon to
check the decline that they believe
there will be many failures this year.
The sales yesterday were the smallest
they have been In some time, hut the
stock In Augusta Is gradually decreas-
Ing as the sales last week were very
large.
All eyes are turned upon tho govern
ment report, which will be issued on
“ ‘ember 3, and It Is believed that It
have much to do with tho condi
tion of affairs. If It Is bearish, as
many believe, the price will fall low,
but If it Is bullish, there will bo a lit-
tie light for the farmers.

urer is between Culberson
